00:01You will not remember what I show you now
00:04And yet I shall awaken memories
00:08Of love and crime and death
00:20Frankenstein
00:21Dracula
00:24The Mummy
00:26Wolfman
00:28I love these monsters and that genre of filmmaking
00:32It transported me to a different time, a different place
00:36Terrified me
00:37It had a very unique kind of romance that I was attracted to
00:42Universal Monsters were truly the first cinematic universe
00:48She hates me
00:50Like others
00:53These are people etched by misery and trauma
00:57And loss that made them into these monsters
01:00Whoever is bitten by a werewolf and lives
01:05Becomes a werewolf himself
01:09In the 1932 Mummy
01:11You empathize massively with Boris Karloff's character
01:15My love has lasted longer than the temples of our gods
01:18No man ever suffered as I did for you
01:21All these monsters tend to be heightened aspects of ourselves
01:25The difference between them and us is that they have crossed the line that most of us would be too
01:29frightened to cross
01:30I wanted to do something tremendous
01:32To achieve what men of science have dreamt of since the world again
01:36All of these classic monsters were complicated beings
01:39They had a real through line to your heart
01:42You identify with these characters
01:44There's points where you really want to see them win
01:46You're kind of asking who's the monster here
01:49Us or them
01:55With The Mummy we are all making a movie together to uphold a very precious legacy
02:02You can't run
02:05You can't escape
02:07She's got plans for you
02:10These movies were suspense for classic horror films
02:13So for me it's very exciting to be able to have an opportunity
02:16To bring this kind of film to a modern audience
02:22To a new world
02:24Of gods and monsters
02:39To a new world
